We
want to be sure our worldwide fleet is more environmentally friendly
than that of any other rental company.
Because we buy all our vehicles we have to pay far more attention to
resale values – and therefore, emissions ratings – than any of our
competitors. Currently, 47% of our global rental fleet averages 28
mpg or better, and 28% averages 32 mpg or better.
Europe is leading this initiative and this year undertook a review
of our fleet. As a result, when last measured, our European
vehicles now average 44.5 mpg. We are confident that this ranks us among
the top in the industry.
